Every StopFlex kit is bespoke-engineered for your exact model and trim — brackets, rotor-hat offsets, and caliper mounting are matched to your specific car, never assumed from the platform. Trims that share a chassis name can differ mechanically: a pure performance variant often carries different knuckles, hub geometry, and wheel ET clearance than the standard models, so parts that bolt onto one are not the parts that fit the other. Calipers, pads, rotor hats, floating hardware, and brake lines ship as one matched system built to your confirmed trim. Modified knuckles, uprights, or non-factory suspension mounting points must be reviewed before ordering.
The 380 mm rotor sets the minimum wheel size at 19" — smaller wheels will not clear the caliper and rotor. Spoke profile and offset also affect clearance; confirm your exact wheels before ordering.

| 17" | 300 mm – 330 mm |

Why Carbon Ceramic — and Why StopFlex
Lower Unsprung Mass
A carbon-ceramic rotor weighs roughly half of the equivalent iron disc. Less rotating, unsprung mass lets the suspension follow broken pavement more cleanly and makes steering response noticeably sharper.
High-Temperature Stability
The carbon-silicon-carbide friction matrix keeps working at temperatures that push iron rotors into heavy fade, so the tenth hard stop feels like the first — same pedal travel, same bite point.
Rust-Free Rotor Surface
Ceramic discs cannot flash-rust. After rain, a wash, or weeks of parking, the rotor face behind your open-spoke wheels stays clean — no orange ring on a freshly detailed car.
Long Street-Service Life
In normal road use with matched pads and correct bedding, one StopFlex CCB rotor set is engineered to outlast several sets of iron replacement rotors, recovering part of the up-front cost.
Low Visible Dust
Matched with StopFlex pads, the system sheds a fraction of the dust an iron rotor and pad combination throws. Wheels stay clean for weeks of driving instead of days.
Premium Ceramic-Glaze Finish
StopFlex's proprietary coating gives the disc a bright ceramic-glaze surface with subtle texture — the factory carbon-ceramic look, clearly visible through open wheel designs.
Continuous Fiber Construction
StopFlex discs are built with long continuous carbon fiber instead of chopped short fiber. Continuous strands carry load across the whole rotor body, raising strength and thermal durability under heat cycles.
Bespoke Per-Vehicle Engineering
Every order is machined to the confirmed vehicle and trim. Brackets, hat offsets, and pad shapes are built for that exact car — never pulled from a one-size-fits-all catalog.
CCB-Specific Pad Compound
A low-metallic resin pad compound reinforced with steel, copper, and aramid fiber, made for ceramic discs: stable to about 750 °C, roughly 0.44 average friction, strong fade resistance, low rotor wear.
Winter & Cold-Weather Braking
Winter question, straight answer: untuned ceramic discs bite less when cold. StopFlex optimized the pad compound and the rotor's ceramic coating for cold operation, so cold-start braking in winter feels very close to warm-weather braking. Extra following distance on freezing first stops is still smart; severe-winter daily cars should run Street Spec.
Caliper Overview
Front Caliper
The front uses your choice of Brembo 6-piston caliper — V6 (OEM Cadillac CTS-V), GT6 (Brembo GT | M6), or GTS6 (Brembo GT | S6) — each paired with a 380mm carbon-ceramic rotor. Six opposed pistons hold pedal pressure steady on the FL5 when the factory front Brembo starts to fade after repeated hard stops.
Rear Caliper
The rear pairs a Brembo 4-piston caliper — V4, GT4, or GTS4 — with a matched 380mm rotor to add balanced rear thermal capacity on longer sessions. Rear caliper choice is selected alongside the front so the front-to-rear bite is dialed for your car.
Choose Your Rotor: Street, Track-Day, or Motorsport
Street Spec
Ceramic coating, cross-drilled face, and large cooling channels.
Best for daily driving and premium street builds that need clean cold bite, low dust, corrosion-free appearance, and long service life.
Track-Day Spec
Ceramic coating, blank face, and honeycomb cooling channels.
Best for fast-road and track-day use where repeated braking stability matters more than maximum visual drilling style.
Motorsport Spec
Uncoated blank face with honeycomb cooling channels.
Best for race-focused builds that run competition pads, high-temperature fluid, cooling strategy, and a proper warm-up window. Not the default street choice.
Heat Management Note
Carbon ceramic rotors tolerate extreme surface temperature, but they do not remove every heat-management requirement. During repeated hard stops, heat still soaks into pads, fluid, seals, calipers, wheels, and nearby components. For long track sessions, mountain descents, or sustained aggressive driving, brake cooling and high-temperature fluid are still recommended.
Get Your Fitment Confirmed
Before ordering, tell us the exact vehicle, current rotor sizes, and caliper type. Nothing goes to production until the build is confirmed against your VIN-level configuration.
FAQ
My FL5 already has factory Brembo front brakes. Is this kit really a step up?
Yes. The Type R ships with a 4-piston front caliper; this kit moves you to a 6-piston Brembo (V6, GT6, or GTS6) clamping a 380mm carbon-ceramic rotor. That combination adds clamping area and heat capacity the factory iron setup runs out of on repeated track stops, and the ceramic disc sheds heat faster and weighs less than the OE iron rotor.
Will these brakes feel weak in winter or cold weather?
An untuned carbon-ceramic disc bites less than cold iron on the first stops — that's normal physics, not a defect. StopFlex tunes both the pad compound and the disc's ceramic coating for cold starts, so cold-car feel on this Civic now comes very close to summer feel. On the coldest first few stops, leave a little extra following distance until the front rotors reach working temperature.
Is this a universal Civic kit or built for my exact trim?
It's bespoke per confirmed trim. The FE Si and FL5 Type R differ in knuckle geometry, hub geometry, and wheel clearance, so we cut brackets, rotor-hat offsets, and caliper mounting for your specific car and trim. We never sell a platform-wide bolt-on claim across the whole FE/FL/FL5 family.
What wheels do I need to clear these rotors?
The front rotor is 380mm, so 19-inch wheels are the minimum — anything under 19 inches will not clear the disc or caliper. Spoke shape matters too, since the 6-piston caliper needs clearance in the barrel. Send your wheel model and offset during fitment and we'll confirm it before you buy.
